What historical facts? The NT? The Patristic writings? The early councils? No Papacy yet..not until the seventh century. Your “historical facts” are bogus.
Let's start there.
Already in ca. 96 A.D. we have the Bishop of Rome,
Clement, asserting authority over the Church in Corinth,
which had its own Bishop, in order to settle problems
existing there:
"The Church of God which sojourns in Rome to the Church of
God which sojourns in Corinth....If anyone disobey the things
which have been said by Him through us, let them know that they
will involve themselves in transgression and in no small
danger." -Pope Clement of Rome [reign. c A.D.91-101],
1st Epistle to the Corinthians, 1,59:1.
By the way St. John the Apostle was still alive and presiding at this time in Ephesus.
